The minister further said that Prime Minister Narendra Modi has presented the vision of a capable and developed North- East through peace and dialogues ever since he assumed office.
Shah noted that PM Modi has not only removed the distance between Delhi and North- East through road, rail and air connectivity, but also removed the distance between people’s hearts.
The Union Home Minister has also said that the government is committed towards overall development of the entire North eastern region of the country, while also preserving their culture, identity and language, Shah added.
The Modi Government has so far signed 12 important agreements, in view of peace in the region, and out of these three are related to Trpura.
So far, around ten thousand people have given up arms and now are part of the mainstream, which is a result of the several agreements signed by current government, aimed towards making the North-East region conflict and extremism free.
